But while Kelly is on the mend, she starts to have her suspicions about some shady activity across the street. Can she resist the call of Bane’s animal magnetism long enough to solve the mystery, or is it just her imagination getting the best of her?

Single Daddy Shifters:
-Axel
-Bane
-Chase
-Daxmore
Bane is a wolf shifter who is also a single dad. Kelly runs a local bakery and is also Bane’s landlord. There is chemistry between Bane and Kelly but neither is sure about a relationship due to their roles as renter and landlord. When one of Ollies toys is dropped on the steps and Kelly trips and hurts herself, Bane feels responsible. Bane gets up early in the mornings to bake so Kelly’s business is not jeopardized due to her injury. Kelly notices something is going on across the street at the yoga studio. A mysterious van, screaming, the yoga studio is closed and the studio owner hasn’t been seen. Love this book. If you love shifters this is the book for you.
As the second book in the series, you just can’t help loving little Ollie. Bane moved to Tarker’s Hollow to allow Ollie a town where there were shifters. Bane is a freelance writer who rents an apartment from the Kelly, the owner of the bakery. Both Bane and Kelly live in apartments over the bakery and have close contact daily. It doesn’t take long for the attraction to grow on both their sides plus Ollie is a very loveable toddler. There are a few twists and turns but their attraction turns to love. My favorite saying in the book is, of course, from little Ollie “Time for Ollie to wake up now”.
great read
Loved this story. Bane is a great uncle now dad to Oliver. Oliver is the cutest little guy ever. And Kelly is perfect for the two of them. They all love to cook/bake and Kelly has a bakery/small library. They all work great together. Him being a wolf shifter is just icing on this cinnamon roll.
Kelly owns and runs the bakery in Tarker’s Hollow, but it’s been slow since the yoga studio open right across the street. She even rented out one of her two apartments above the bakery, to bring in extra money and Bane and his nephew Ollie rents it. Bane and his nephew Ollie are rent a apartment over Kelly’s bakery, until his sisters house is sold and then he will buy a small cottage, just perfect for him and Ollie, but the more time he is around Kelly the harder it is to stay away from her, his mate. While walking up the steps, to her apartment late afternoon, Kelly falls and sprain her ankle, that’s when Bane and Ollie come to her rescue, by helping in the bakery. With extra time on her hand, Kelly sits by her bedroom window and notice strange things happening in the yoga studio, a white unmarked van and a female screaming. When Kelly tries to tell Bane what she sees and hears, he doesn’t believe her, he thinks it’s her pain pills causing hallucinations, until one night he hears the strange scream and runs over to help. But what Bane and Kelly saw will change both of them forever.
I enjoyed reading this story it’s full of life. This story has little Ollie who is at that age where he is so cute, the couple is so believable which makes this a great story to read.
Such a sweet story. Ollie is a sweetheart and Bane is an adult version sweetie. I like Kelly too, she is smart, independent and very observant. They make a perfect family. Their discovery of mutual attraction surrounded with the mysterious happenings in Tarker’s Hollow come together to make a very enjoyable and interesting paranormal love story. Great series! I received a free advance copy and am voluntarily reviewing.
Kelly’s dream of a Bakery-book store was a reality. Now she just had to make enough to keep it going. Some unforeseen distractions were making it harder than she anticipated. Rent from the second apartment upstairs was helping. The adorable little boy and his hot dad made it even better.
Bane had his hands full with his new son who was biologically his nephew now adopted after his parents were killed in an accident. His sister charged him with the little boy’s care. He loved the toddler and was becoming a good dad. He didn’t really have time for women in his life. But his wolf wouldn’t let him ignore Kelly–his mate. When she got hurt, wolf and man knew they had to help and protect what was theirs.
Now he just had to figure out how to explain he was a wolf shifter. Some strange happenings might just mess it all up.
Once again the author has created characters that melt my heart. Ollie is just squeezable, and daddy is hot as Kelly finds out in this steamy, sweet, love story. Make sure you look for Ollies’ birthday present for Kelly!

This is the second book of this daddy series, it is as just as good as book #1 if not better. But then I’m a BIG fan of Tarker’s Hollow.
Kelly McDermott owned the coffee and bakery shop called Mornings at McDermott’s. Some day she wanted to add on a little book store so authors could sign there books. But for now she needed her customers back, they are all across the street taking yoga lessons which meant no carbs. It’s a good thing she rented the upstairs apartment to Bane and his adopted nephew Oliver. The cutest little boy and his dad wasn’t bad either plus he could bake and cook. Little did she know Bane was a WolfShifter and her Mate!
This review is my own opinion, this author is one that I love reading her books.
Just loved this series. Bane is so sweet and caring. He’ll do anything for the ones he loves. He gets custody of his nephew when his sister was killed in an accident. Just love sweet Ollie. Kelly is a perfect match to their family. Can’t wait to read more.
OMG! I loved this, and you will, too! … “BANE” is the 2nd fantastic, feel-good, must read story in the new PNR series, ‘Single Daddy Shifters’ & it kept me glued to my seat! … Bane & Kelly are wonderful H/h’s as a sweet, sexy dad and a feisty woman, and all of the characters practically jump off the pages… I can always count on witty dialogue & amazing attention-to-detail with surprises that I know will keep readers hooked & turning pages like crazy! … Even tho I always volunteer to read this author’s books, it is without any outside influences, and I also buy her ebooks, when I can. So I can honestly recommend this to adult fans of fiction… Now I will go back to impatiently waiting for more 😉 lol
